Make Autofit row height work with merged cells
When a group of cells in a row are merged and the text wraps to two or more
lines, double-clicking the row border just to the left of column A (or Format/Row/Autofit) auto-heights the row to one line of text. Either of these actions should heighten the row to fit the text in the merged cells. |
Jim Rech wrote a macro called AutoFitMergedCellRowHeight that you may like:

Dave,
Thanks for the information. While I like macros, I use them sparingly, and this issue is a "feature" Microsoft should fix. To be honest, when creating this post I thought I was making a suggestion directly to MS. My mistake for not paying closer attention.
